Looking for good thoughts

[Scottie72]

I know I haven't been around again. I have been real busy with work, and have cut off the time I spent there completely off. I am only accessing the site from home now.

Quick backround.

6 months ago a new tumor was found on my brain stem. It was looked at and because I have NF it was thought to be slow growing they would just observe it. I then soon developed Hydrocephalus and had a VP shunt inserted in early January. The surgery went well I am almost fully recovered. Now I had a MRI two weeks ago and just heard the results this past week. My tumor has grown and now they are sending up to see doctors in Richmond to decide the best path. It looks like I might have to have another surgery and or radiation treatment.

I am just looking for good thoughts and prayers, it has been tough the last few days. My mood has been up and down. I am so thankful to have such a great and understanding partner! You can also read about my trials on my webjournal <http://www.livejournal.com/users/scottie72/)[br />

6. That's an Extremely Difficult Thing to Go Through

It takes tremendous stamina and optimism. I hope you pull through in good shape.

7. Thanks to everyone so far

Thanks to everyone for their support. I just wish I had more time to spend here. By the time I get home from work the last thing I want to do is log onto the computer.

So is anyone going to see "The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy this weekend" ? Danny and I are planning to see it Sunday afternoon.

Now everyone with me..... The answer is ..... 42

9. Good thoughts heading your way, my friend.

Just went through a shitload of testing myself. Went to a hypnotist to learn self hypnosis for relaxation. Learning to breate was the best part.

Hang in there. DU is great for additional support.
